Pizza giant sales dip 8.4% in first half
Like-for-like sales in Ireland fell by 8.4% in the first half of this year.
The company which sponsors reality shows like Britain’s Got Talent said that as a result of the impact of the economic difficulties being experienced by franchisees in Ireland, the Irish commissary agreed to provide additional support of £485,000 (€549,000) during the 52 weeks ended December 26, 2010. The additional support resulted in a £136,000 reduction in the group’s tax charge for the period.
